MESO MAYA AUTHENTIC MEXICO M eso Maya offers “an adventure into the fresh, bold and earthy flavors of authentic interior Mexico” with a menu inspired by natural ingredients from Mexico with scratch moles, adobos, salsas, and hand-ground tortillas. The menu, created by Executive Chef Nico Sanchez, is true to the genuine essence of Mexico. Chef Sanchez honed his skills at several restaurants throughout his native country, in states such as Veracruz, where he learned about seafood, dried chilies, and making sauces from scratch, and Oaxaca, where he perfected tamale-making techniques. The brunch menu’s Croque Señor was named one of the “14 Hottest New Sandwiches Around the U.S.” by Zagat. Meso Maya is known for its distinctive hand crafted margaritas such as the original Avocado Margarita and it offers over 40 sipping tequilas. There are two Meso Maya locations in Dallas including downtown across from the Perot Museum of Nature and Science and at Preston Forest, 11909 Preston Road in north Dallas. www.mesomaya.com ModernLifestyles.tv 21
